This place is a hidden gem! We decided to venture out to the east side of town and came for lunch, had their lunch specials! The portions are huge and the food is delicious! I had their lunch special chicken chop suey with fried rice and hot and sour soup! The place was hopping and now I know why! The place was clean and the service was good! Good place to check out if you are in the Zaragoza neighborhood! Enjoy!

I'm so sad...Apparently Red Lantern is under new management...and it sure does show. I had never had a bad meal there in all the years I've gone there until last week, thought it was a fluke and tried again today. The week before I ordered the Chow Fun meat combo )chicken, beef & shrimp) and OMG it had egg in it which it never had before. So, ok. I'll request it be omitted next time. Today was the "next time" and I asked for no egg and was informed they don't put egg in it. Well, yes indeedy they did last week. So instead of the meet combo I just had the beef and one friend had the pork. It's always been stellar...until today. The beef was tough as could be and virtually flavorless. The pork which was always scrumptious pieces of pork meat was ground up like hamburger meat that was unrecognizable as pork. I asked if they'd done away with the char sui type meat and was told this is the way they now do it now. ...Check Chow Fun off my "must have" meal from here on out. My other friend ordered a chicken curry, nice portion but very salty an and a few too many jalapeño slices. The fried rice, nice portion , was dry as a bone! Definitely had been sitting around for awhile. The wait staff was very pleasant and the portions were still huge. However, it was not the tasty dining experience I'd loved for so many years. I'll try one more time and if the results are the same I'll sadly not be returning. I guess it's true that nothing lasts forever.

We had a large group so it took awhile to take the orders. The food didn't all come out together. Everything tasted good- except the hot and sour soup . I had the General Taos chicken it was gray! Spicy but not too hot. It came with white rice even though I ordered fried rice- so I got both! Very large portions!

I have been coming here for about a year and I always order lunch specials and this actual lady has helped me once or twice before and I ordered the lunch special and the fried rice with no lettuce. Now it's an issue. She says they have never done that in the whole time. She's been here of five years. Which is ridiculous because I've been coming here for over a year now And enjoying the food and now I'm never coming back because this lady is such a B and you know what I mean when I say B I will never ever step foot in here and I will stop telling people about this place because she just ruined it for everybody she should be fired. This was a good atmosphere but not anymore. What a horrible and terrible blonde haired lady. She is costing your business tons of money with her attitude. To be honest, she looks very prejudice, but I cannot confirm that.

I just had a to go order from Red Lantern and it was horrible!! Apparently they are under new management. They did away with the Clover rewards program, so you can no longer accumulate points for $5 off of your meal. The quality of food has gone way down. I ordered lemon chicken and barbecue pork fried rice. The lemon sauce had little black specks in it that definitely wasn't pepper, some of the chicken pieces were doughy, and the fried rice was gummy!! Let me get this right, they took away the discount program and serve subpar food!! No thank you!!! They have lost my business!

I've been going to the Red Lantern for 20+ years and always recommended it to all for the price and quality of food. Sharon the owner recently sold it to another family. The quality has completely changed. Food deliveries sent cold and what tasted as food that was not freshly made. Eating in, the sauces and recipes have changed. Not the same taste nor quality. We asked one of the waitresses we recognized as to where is Sharon and what's happening. She explained that Sharon had sold it off to this family. Before she did she showed them how she ran the business and cooked the food. They however are not following past management guidelines. The food taste and quality has drastically changed and loosing a longtime loyal customer.Missing my go to Red Lantern!!!

This is to help this business. _ What happened to you? You used to be good some years ago. To start off your windows are super smeared, the old drapes full of dust. Your chop suey and chkn curry has so much thick gravy and MSG that I'm still trying to digest not to mention the blob on my plate. The hot n sour soup is tasteless you can tell they don't taste the food. Prices are very low, you might want to increase to sell better quality and regain your clientele. Also might consider making your menu more concise. Good luck

Not any more the last three times we ordered the food was tasteless and of poor quality. Not what we have come to expect. We have been faithful customers for over twenty years regretfully the quality has deminished.Has it changed ownership? Chef's?The last time we ordered combination fry rice very little meats and it was tasteless. The combination egg fu yung was also tasteless and dry. WHATS GOING ON OVER THERE! Very disappointed!!!

We ordered war wonton soup, Portabella mushroom deluxe, wonton soup and crispy tofu- delivery was excellent and the food was all packaged very well and in a very considerate manner-soup was separate from food and sauce separately from tofu! Food is delicious! This remains our favorite restaurant! Thank you!
